Pretty pricey for two collector saws IMO..
Here is mine..

 

[MasterBlaster]

Your boy looks excited as all get out!

 

[Magnus]

He just got corrected a bit. Attitude like a grizzly at the time...

Those two looks like perhaps a Contra and an 090 .Nice collectors saws but something you wouldn't care to handle all day .

 

[HolmenTree]

These saws were not designed for handling, just resting themselves on extra large logs and cutting all day long

That is a great picture, Willard.
Did you use regular chain for that or tungsten carbide tipped?

 

[HolmenTree]

Stig the only chain that would stand up was Stihl .404 harvester semi chisel chain. Had to be touched up with a file about every 2nd cut. Some of these rolls depending on the grade of paper took up to 5 minutes at WOT to make one cut. With these cull rolls cut in half the paper mill was then able to fit them into their re-pulper and then make a new roll of paper over again.
Good job while it lasted, $100 per hr ,12 hrs a day. The best day me and Robbie had was 45 paper rolls cut. Now the mill has a hydraulic 60" saw to do the work we did.
Our local mill complex is called Tolko Manitoba and their SPX kraft paper is one of the strongest if not the strongest paper in the world , used mainly for making cement bags.

Google Tolko SPX kraft paper.

I'll say this about cement bags,you can't tear the freakin things with your bare hands unless you are tough as a nail . Fact is you have to beat pretty hard with a pointed shovel to tear them open .

 

[HolmenTree]

I heard most of our paper goes to Mexico where cement and cement bags are big business down there. Your right Al I've poured enough cement myself and the only way to open those bags is with a spade or shovel. Stuff was sure tough to cut with the 090. One of those big 54" rolls has about a mile of paper in them and weighs about 6,000 lbs.

dang thats a lot of paper to have to unroll LOL just think about having a roll of toilet paper that big one thing about it you wouldn't run out no time soon

I tried to look up "Steel Brand" Chainsaws... nothin' came up...

With all the cash you've spent on grinders and stuff... you could save up for a real cool saw.
